  • No experience needed. Volunteers must be at least 16 years old.

  • Volunteers will work in pairs (you can sign up solo and team up with a partner on-site). One person will insert a piece of rebar into the eroded area of the creek bank to make a pilot hole, and the partner volunteer will stick a 2 ft long willow stake into each hole.

  • Parking is available on-site; carpooling is encouraged.

  • What to wear/bring: BYOG (Bring your own gloves). Wear rubber/waterproof boots and dress for the weather. If you have a mallet to use for the pilot holes, please bring it. Remember to LABEL your tools.
